The Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/ehr/article-abstract/133/563/777/5043263 by Universiteit van Amsterdam user on 08 January 2019 Recruitment of Princely Armies in the Late Medieval Low Countries* In 1338–9, Duke Jan III of Brabant (r. 1312–55) raised an army of more than 1,500 knights and squires to help Edward III of England (r. 1327–77) in his struggle to win the French Crown. The king paid him an enormous sum of money for his help; in the autumn of 1339, he owed the duke a staggering 307,000 Florentine florins.1 Edward’s first serious military campaign against Philip VI of France (r. 1328–50) was launched in September 1339 from the Brabantine town of Leuven, where the English king had established his headquarters.2 Duke Jan’s men, who supported King Edward, were primarily recruited from among the duke’s ‘own’ Brabantine vassals, although there were also men from neighbouring principalities, such as the counties of Loon, Mark, Namur and Hainaut. The duke paid them all, vassals as well as others, according to their military and social rank: knights received £6, whereas squires earned half that amount. The total costs for these men- at-arms amounted to some £6,200.3 The increasingly international character of warfare had a significant impact on the way kings and princes composed their armies. The traditional feudal host of the high Middle Ages, in which unpaid vassals served their lord because of their feudal oath, no longer met the needs of belligerent kings and princes. Scholars tend to agree that the * We would like to thank our colleagues both at the University of Amsterdam and at the Huygens Institute for the History of the Netherlands, the two anonymous reviewers and the editors of the EHR for their helpful comments on earlier drafts of this article. 1.

But the Brabantine example of 1338–9 demonstrates that the division Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/ehr/article-abstract/133/563/777/5043263 by Universiteit van Amsterdam user on 08 January 2019 between the two types of armed forces was not clear-cut. Instead, there was a transitional period in which both forms could occur at the same time, and in which the distinction between unpaid vassals and mercenaries was blurred. In this article, we examine this transition from feudal host to paid forces in the Low Countries during the fourteenth century. As early as the twelfth century, the princes of Holland, Brabant and Flanders were capable of mobilising armies of 500 to 1,000 mounted men- at-arms. In the fourteenth century these figures were substantially higher, ranging from 1,000 to 2,500.4 Although some princes had over 2,000 vassals and sub-vassals, it is unlikely that these men alone were capable of providing an armed force appropriate for a princely military campaign.5 We show that both the princes and the men who fought for them deployed various strategies and methods to cope with changing circumstances. Since there was no linear development from an army consisting of vassals to one of paid ‘retainers’, it is necessary to disentangle a wide range of feudal and other personal relationships. We focus in particular on the formal ties between princes and nobles in relation to the build-up of princely hosts, and on the ways in which these ties developed and changed. These relationships, both feudal and non-feudal, have previously been studied only in part (in the case of fief- rentes, for example)6 or in the context of particular military conflicts.7 In looking at the full gamut of these relationships and at their evolution across an entire century, this article also contributes to the wider debate about the military position of the nobility in the Low Countries and 4.

The picture is made richer by consideration of the role of towns, but space is lacking here to elaborate on that. In short: towns were not only important princely strongholds, but also functioned as a reservoir for the recruitment of men for military operations. In these territories, knighthood did not have an exclusively rural character; many members of the urban elites were also knighted and played political and military roles in both the town and the princely entourage.

Plague Mortality in the Seventeenth-Century Low Countries Much current scholarship argues that in early mod- ern northwestern Europe, plagues not only were less severe than the seventeenth-century plagues that ravaged Italy; they were also far less territorially pervasive—remaining mainly in the cities and not spreading easily into the countryside. Such a view connects to a long historiography about early modern plague in northwestern Europe that largely establishes the disease as an urban phenomenon, a nar- rative that is still dominant. This view adds further weight to the “urban graveyards” notion that depicts early modern cities as death traps. From this perspective, extreme rural cases of plague, such as the famous examples of Colyton (Devon) in 1645/6 or Eyam (Derbyshire) in 1665/6 in England, look exceptional, unrepresentative of general epidemiolog- ical trends.

  • Of a Princely Court in the Burgundian Netherlands, 1467-1503 Jun
    Court in the Market: The ‘Business’ of a Princely Court in the Burgundian Netherlands, 1467-1503 Jun Hee Cho Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Jun Hee Cho All rights reserved ABSTRACT Court in the Market: The ‘Business’ of a Princely Court in the Burgundian Netherlands, 1467-1503 Jun Hee Cho This dissertation examines the relations between court and commerce in Europe at the onset of the modern era. Focusing on one of the most powerful princely courts of the period, the court of Charles the Bold, duke of Burgundy, which ruled over one of the most advanced economic regions in Europe, the greater Low Countries, it argues that the Burgundian court was, both in its institutional operations and its cultural aspirations, a commercial enterprise. Based primarily on fiscal accounts, corroborated with court correspondence, municipal records, official chronicles, and contemporary literary sources, this dissertation argues that the court was fully engaged in the commercial economy and furthermore that the culture of the court, in enacting the ideals of a largely imaginary feudal past, was also presenting the ideals of a commercial future. It uncovers courtiers who, despite their low rank yet because of their market expertise, were close to the duke and in charge of acquiring and maintaining the material goods that made possible the pageants and ceremonies so central to the self- representation of the Burgundian court. It exposes the wider network of court officials, urban merchants and artisans who, tied by marriage and business relationships, together produced and managed the ducal liveries, jewelries, tapestries and finances that realized the splendor of the court.

  • Baanrotsen in Brabant
    KU Leuven Faculty of Arts Blijde Inkomststraat 21 box 3301 3000 LEUVEN, BELGIË Baanrotsen in Brabant Title, power and nobility in the duchy of Brabant in the long fourteenth century Sarah De Decker Presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Advanced Master of Arts in Medieval and Renaissance Studies Supervisor: prof. dr. Hans Cools Academic year 2014-2015 164 096 characters ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In comparison to my dear friends and colleagues from the Advanced Master, it took me some time longer to finish my thesis. The main reason for this was the uncertainty that prevailed at the beginning of this research concerning the question whether I could find baanrotsen in sources for the thirteenth and fourteenth century other than the chronicle of Jan van Heelu. Every time this uncertainty came up, it was met with the positive and motivating spirit of my supervisor prof. dr. Hans Cools. For his patience with me these last two years, for his constant support and for all the encouraging discussions about baanrotsen and Brabant, I would like to sincerely thank him. The completion of this thesis would also never have been realised without the support of my family and friends. To my aunt in particular, Tante Mie, I owe special thanks. She always made time to scrutinize the spelling and grammar of this entire thesis and in doing so, she ensured that I did not had to be embarrassed about my English writing. I would also like to thank my best friends Marjon and Lies, my sister, for the reading, their support and all the hours they sacrificed to listening to all my thoughts and concerns.

Consequently, the bakufu army was formed according to a new model that introduced regulations and equipment of Dutch origins. However, what was the real military power of the Netherlands behind this Dutch primacy in Japan? The article presents an overview of the Dutch defences and army in the early 1860s, in order to evaluate the gap between the Dutch military infl uence in Japan and the Dutch military power in Europe.
